Starting an Apple Wine

[masta]

Waldo...the blueberry concentrate is amazing stuff...24 lbs of berries to make a quart!!!! I ask them what the ratio of cherries to concentrate was and didn't get a good answer but it has to close to the blueberry based on the brix of the concentrate.


I have a order ofcherry and cranberry in route to Valley Brew. I need some more cherry for my Melomel and the cranberry makes an awesome drink with vodka...check out my post in food and wine.

Waldo,


I'm not a fan of blueberries, but if you try the concentrate, let me know how it comes out.

Update..... Just as a reminder, I earlier asked about the finevinewines apple concentrate flavoring.


My apple wine is turning out WONDERFULLY. This is by far my best batch of anything so far. It tastes a bit like pinot grigio. Very light bodied like that. The initial overwhelming flavor of alcohol is now gone.


I've added 3 ounces (from the 4 ounce bottle)of the aforementioned apple concentrate & think that will just about do it. So if anyone is considering making some apple wine from grocery-store-bought apple juice, I say go for it.
